What exactly goes into photographing a newborn? Mostly: time.We essentially tell parents, "Hey. Sit back. Relax. We're moving in for a while and we have lots of luggage."That's because, truth be told, no two shoots are the same. Some babies are sleepers. Some, well, not so much. Some are big (well, relatively speaking). Some fit in a bowl. Some in a basket. Some fit in the palm of your hand. And, of course, some, well, don't. Some don't mind a bright light. Some require cranking up the ISO camera setting so you can shoot in the dark.Like the tiny babies themselves, it's all about being flexible. And recognizing that not every idea is going to pan out. And that's okay.Guess that's sort of like life in general, eh?
